Targeted Exon Skipping of NF1 Exon 17 as a Therapeutic for Neurofibromatosis Type I
[Molecular Therapy-Nucleic Acids] Initial in silico analysis predicted exons that can be skipped with minimal loss of neurofibromin function, which was confirmed with in vitro assessments utilizing an neurofibromatosis type 1 (Nf1) cDNA-based functional screening system.

Biomarker LEPRE1 Induces Pelitinib-Specific Drug Responsiveness by Regulating ABCG2 Expression and Tumor Transition States in Human Leukemia and Lung Cancer
[Scientific Reports] Investigators discovered a mechanical correlation between leucine proline-enriched proteoglycan 1 (LEPRE1) and pelitinib drug sensitivity using in silico statistical methods and confirmed the correlation in acute myeloid leukemia and A549 lung cancer cells.

T Cell Dysfunction in the Glioblastoma Microenvironment Is Mediated by Myeloid Cells Releasing Interleukin-10
[Nature Communications] Researchers showed that a subset of Interleukin-10-releasing HMOX1+ myeloid cells, spatially localizing to mesenchymal-like tumor regions, drove T cell exhaustion and thus contributed to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment.
